In 2022, the number of health insurance defaulters in the Netherlands fell to approximately 159,000. This is the lowest number reached since 2010. The Dutch health insurance system as it is now was introduced in 2006 and combines elements of both public as well as private insurance. It is mandatory to have at least a basic health insurance (in Dutch: basisverzekering) when you work in the Netherlands, because healthcare is funded through taxation of income.
